Thousands of live music supporters marched to the steps of Parliament House in Melbourne today protesting against liquor licensing laws that have impacted on the operation of many live music venues around the state. Here is my footage and stills captured on the day with the Canon 7D.
Fortunately, with a recent Live Music Accord being brokered behind the scenes just prior to the rally it looks like common sense will prevail. More information can be found on the SLAM website.
Shooting directly into the sun with a reduced exposure and aperture is a good way to simulate the ‘day for night’ effect often seen in movies. This photo has had the sun replaced with an image of the moon taken on a separate occasion.
This is the original shot after crushing the black levels a bit and setting the white balance at around 3900K. The exposure was f16, 1/8000, ISO 100.
This is a shot of the same scene straight out of the camera with no effects and an exposure somewhere toward the middle of the range (f11, 1/1000, ISO 100).
